- Update to TMDA 1.0 "Cannonade"
From Jason's announcement: "After almost three years of hacking on TMDA, I'm proud to announce the release of version 1.0-final. I figured that after this length of time, the version number should be bumped to a positive value to better reflect its current stability." - Reword pkg-descr

-Tagged Message Delivery Agent (TMDA).
+Tagged Message Delivery Agent (TMDA) is designed to significantly reduce the
+amount of spam (junk-mail) you receive. TMDA strives to be more effective,
+yet less time-consuming than traditional spam filters.
-TMDA is an OSI certified software application designed to
-significantly reduce the amount of SPAM/UCE (junk-mail) you receive.
-TMDA combines a "whitelist" (for known/trusted senders), a "blacklist"
-(for undesired senders), and a cryptographically enhanced confirmation
-system (for unknown, but legitimate senders).
+The technical countermeasures used by TMDA to thwart spam include:
+- whitelists: accept mail from known, trusted senders
+- blacklists: refuse mail from undesired senders
+- challenge/response: allows unknown senders which aren't on the whitelist or
+ blacklist the chance to confirm that their message is legitimate (non-spam)
+- tagged addresses: special-purpose e-mail addresses such as time-dependent
+ addresses, or addresses which only accept certain kinds of communication.
+ These increase the transparency of TMDA for unknown senders by allowing them
+ to safely circumvent the challenge/response system.

+TMDA can also be used as a general purpose local mail delivery agent to filter,
+sort, deliver and dispose of incoming mail.
